Here is the body of this article.
2023On the last Friday of the year, sitting in a workstation surrounded by leaders and coworkers who have already left, it's a good time to look back on what has been a fulfilling fall recruiting journey.
First, a summary. This fall recruiting experience is summarized in one sentence - theThieving, backward-looking non-science class (expected to be able to) transcoding。
Status of delivery: as of2024surname Nian01Months, cumulative delivery105(online application) +9(offline seminars) +2(BOSS Direct) + some that I can't quite remember (I guess just a few), which amounts to a total of120around; of these businesses, I've had about as many as I've had here voluntarily withdraw from the process10family, and all others were involved. Of these, the interviews were probably30I have also shared the detailed questions and algorithmic topics of each interview in full and in detail on the whole website many times (I will also send out the companies that I haven't shared as of now), so I won't go into details here.

Next, in terms of personal circumstances, the high school goals areguarantee a second school and strive for a first oneof me, I had the honor of attending undergraduateHuazhong Agricultural University-It's an end of the line.211（Mr. Poon said this should be calledStronger 211(rather than the end of the line), the school is pretty cooky compared to everyone else's but I really love it; the master's program was fortunate enough to come to theInstitute of Space and Astronautical Information Innovation, Chinese Academy of Sciences-- Attributed to CSU, there is no985、211The name, as if supposedly belongs to the double first-class now, but after all, low visibility - in different employers, the State University of Science and Technology has a kind of sometimes belongs to the double first-class, sometimes belongs to the double non-, sometimes belongs to the pheasant touched porcelain in the University of Science and Technology or GF University of Science and Technology, sometimes belongs to to be asked whether your school is a specialist or undergraduate feeling. Both undergraduate and graduate programs aregeographic informationaspects (i.e.GIS), the undergraduate degree isGeographic Information Science(A very useful specialty!) ; Graduate students areCartography and Geographic Information Systems(very interesting major!) , and then the graduate school group focuses onQuantitative remote sensing of vegetationDirections. Speaking of which to mention, I'm still more accustomed to saying all about my school and specific majors, it feels clearer - after all, I have a nickname all over the internet, and those who know it have long known it, and those who don't know it still don't know it, even thoughHRIt's nothing to see.
Secondly, in terms of the intended position, the generalization isIT. Of these, the main personal intentions areback-end development、software developmentThese niche positions (the main reason why I set this intention was because the internship was in the direction of back-end R&D), and I also submitted some Ops and Maintenance positions (these were mainly SOE or bank tech positions). The aforementioned gotOfferThe positions that you are interested in are all of the above.ITDirections for the post.
So looking at it this way, one is also considered to be a non-scientific transcoding. This code-switching, not to say that there is no effect, but the effect is still relatively limited - all the current results of the enterprise, all from manufacturing, banking and other fields, or some children and grandchildren of state-owned enterprises, and none of the most wanted to go to the Internet unit (or even go to the)one's whole face(There are only a few Internet companies, almost all of them have failed the written test). But in fact, for this result, I feel that can be so has been very lucky, after all, know their current problem, that is, started too late.
1 Fall Recruitment Process
So here's another review of the fall recruiting timeline.
- Late 2023.03, begin initial resume preparation with summer internship.
- In mid-2023.05, none of the applications for summer internships came through, and preparations for the job search were suspended.
- Started pitching daily internships in late 2023.06.
- Started daily internship in mid-2023.07.
- In the first half of 2023.08, fall recruiting submissions began, primarily online applications.
- Late 2023.08, started brushing up, but more casually.
- In the first half of 2023.09, start brushing up in a systematic way.
- In mid-2023.09, begin systematic review of the eight strands.
- In mid-2023.10, the online application was phased out.
- Mid 2023.11, the written interviews for the online application tapered off; however, the presentation was dropped off.
- In mid-2023.11, received the firstOffer。
- Midway through 2023.12, all types of interviews are starting to wind down, either soaking the pool or not hearing from them at all.
In a nutshell, I started with2023annual08Starting in the month of January, it is considered to be a real preparation for the fall recruitment (ahead of the06month while preparing for daily internships and in07(I was able to get into the program in January, but I was also lucky at the time and didn't really prepare much for the internship or job search); and then at the11month or so, even if it gradually stops, all that is left is to conduct some unfinished written tests and interviews. The final entry into the12In the middle of the month, it's safe to say that I'm kind of done with all of fall recruiting (except for still waiting on results from a few other companies).
As you can see from the following swipe log, I started swiping at2023annual09Early in the month (the picture below was taken at2024surname Nian01(Intercepted at the end of the month, the days in between were vacant because I had yang or A-flu; I did brush up on questions for a few days on niuke, but not much, so you can just ignore it). You know, at this time, not to mention the science class, most of the non-science class also at least into the early batch of soaking the pool of the session, but I just started to prepare to do the questions. For the written test for internet, the most written test in the09mid-month to10During the first part of the month, I was at a level where I couldn't even do the first question hahahaha.
Though now with the brushing up (at least daily)3A new topic, currently available500+As you can see in the figure below; this is a slightly earlier and not the most recent one), you can really feel that the algorithmic capabilities have really improved (Huawei2rounds of professional interviews can be hand-torn with no problem), but after all, it's long past the fall recruiting time for the Internet, so it's still grainy, at least as far as Internet companies are concerned.
go into11Months, with the brush-up and eight-unit review in-depth, feel for the interview at that time (at that time, the interview Internet are also less, mainly banks, state-owned enterprises, such as for the algorithm and eight-unit examination is not so in-depth positions), there is indeed a relatively large improvement, and this is for the start of the later banks and state-owned enterprises, it is really helpful.
Subsequently, re-enter the12months, and at this point there are still a few companies waiting for the results. It also happens to be a good time to mention Huawei again (if you've read mypeel a sweet potato(Posted notes, so you'll be familiar with this) - Since I applied to HES by mistake, the expected salary was really low, and the math worked out that I'd need to go in and work for years to catch up to the starting salaries of my fellow grad students who graduated two or three years ago. So I also talked to the matchmaker at the beginning, and if it's a report for approval13Then I should have stayed away; and later on arrived at the01month, the docking station contacted me again, I realized that the last time I said so, the docking station to see my intention is not strong, simply did not reapply for approval; but now, combined with this year's spring recruitment of the general situation, this time or to let the docking station first reported for approval, take a step and see what happens.
But either way, whether it ends up signing a bond, or just straight upall inSpring recruiting, this spring recruiting is definitely going to take another shot - especially internet companies and the head offices of the big four banks, and some real state-owned enterprises, still hoping to give it another try.
Finally, in general, the above timeline for me is not informative, after all, I started too late - it would have been nice to move my nodes all the way forward by a year, i.e., a year before fall recruiting starts to get ready - this applies especially to thethe Internet(used form a nominal expression)research and developmentdirection of the job search, and to be honest if the intended organization is the Internet, thefirst year of graduate study、second-year university studentIt's best to start preparing (if it'scourt academician (in feudal China)(To go to the Internet, that most of the cases is to go in to engage in algorithmic research, this kind of reverse does not require you to prepare too early in advance, good research during the study period, more computer, algorithms in the field of the paper on the line).
My battle lines are drawn longer because I'm quite capable of surviving - internships and fall recruiting while working on a project group, small papers and large papers while working as a student and blogging (blogging here, my publishing platform has now cumulatively been19I'm not sure if it's a problem, but the more tired and fulfilled I am, the happier I am (but remember to work and rest regularly, otherwise the fall recruitment physical examination will give you a head start). People in this life, when you're young, there are only a few decades and a hundred years, this time not a little tired, not a little hard work, do you still wait for a hundred or two hundred years old after the fight? At that time, even if I want to work hard, I may not be able to work as hard - at least not as efficiently as the young (underage) me now. It's done, so let's just keep trying 💪 and keep the spring recruitment going!
2 Personal experience
Having roughly reviewed my fall recruiting timeline earlier, here are some lessons learned from that long process.
For me, I definitely don't have a lot of things that I would call doing well, but I have stepped in a lot of potholes, so I do have some advice or experience in avoiding potholes. Some of these experiences, perhaps I can still be used in the spring recruitment, but most of me although I realized, but it is too late to correct, so also sent for your reference.
Then, in accordance with the preparation process for fall recruitment, let's summarize our own experience of stepping on pits and avoiding pits. Of course, combined with their own actual situation, the experience summarized here is more or less more suitable for software development, back-end R & D direction of the post. In addition, at present, these points of experience, said a relatively broad; specific detailed content, after the time can be updated.
Early and clear direction. Will you be employed, or will you be furthering your education? If employment, which direction of posting, which type of enterprise? If further study, is it domestic or foreign, and what direction of the subject group to choose? The sooner you figure all this out, the better. Although I often say that there is no hurry when I talk to my siblings about job hunting and further study, and that it's okay to figure it out before the third year of graduate school, it's better to do it as early as possible. When I was interning, the group next to me came to a senior to graduate school to Peking University students, the remaining half a year of undergraduate time to internship - regardless of the eventual graduate school, he chose to go to academia, or to find a job, at least as early as in the senior year on the accumulation of a period of large factories (I think you can call it) of internship experience, for their own measure of Personal interest, as well as later if the job search if the delivery of resumes, interviews and other processes, are very helpful. Looking back at myself, I was fortunate enough to be able to go to graduate school in my senior year, but that year was so chaotic that I don't even know what I did that year. If I could go back in time, I would have been the first to intern in Beijing hahaha.
Start preparing as early as possible. Once you have a clear direction, you need to start preparing for that direction as soon as possible. For the fall recruitment, I feel that half a year in advance (starting from the end of the winter vacation of the year of the fall recruitment) to prepare, can not be said to be early enough; the best is a year in advance (the summer of the end of the first or second year of study) to prepare. In the case of development positions, once you have determined your intended direction, you will need plenty of time to prepare for brushing up, memorizing eight units, and if you have a surplus of time you can roll another project or two. If, like me, as mentioned above, the09Only in the month to start brushing up the questions, read the content of the eight shares, but also non-science classes, which if you can find a large factoryOfferI don't believe it myself hahaha.
A matching internship at a large factory is desirable. I was average, but really lucky - although I started preparing late for fall recruitment, I was fortunate enough to participate in a daily internship at DDT the summer after my second year of study. Can really feel that what I was involved in probably30In almost every interview, the main focus of the questioning was on this one internship, plus a few internships and course design experiences that I participated in during my undergraduate studies. Some interviews, in particular, were less than an hour long in total, and the questions dripping with internships could be 30 or 40 minutes long. Imagine, if there is no internship experience, then the interviewer with what to consume this close to an hour of interview length - can only be eight stocks; and as long as the question eight stocks, that was asked to the probability of not knowing the knowledge points, can soar. At the same time, because the internship experience are their own have done (of course, will certainly exaggerate some, after all, to moderate packaging their own well; but how to exaggerate, as long as do not go too far, their own certainly can be rounded back), so the difficulty of the topic is a lot less; and you can also deliberately will be the interviewer's questioning direction to guide to their own better at the field. So it's really good that I have this internship, or else with my level of preparation and short-term preparation, I wouldn't be able to get a job in a small bank or a small business, which I can at least use as a guarantee now!OfferUp.
Brush up on more questions and memorize more eights. There's really not much to say about this. If you want to go to an Internet-related company or position, regardless of whether it's a science class or not, I'm sure we all know that we need to prepare for this. However, knowing to prepare, and really go to prepare, this can not be a concept at all. I started this year's3When I started looking for a summer internship in January, I aspired to brush up on one question a day; as a result, I didn't get a chance to do so until the8In the month of January, even the daily internships had started more than a month before the goal of daily brushing up was actually interned. So, to catch up with the progress from9Starting in the month, consistently brush up on a number of topics each day, of which at least3A new topic. There were times when I didn't have time to do a lot of work in my group because I had to do my internship during the day, and I'd rather be scolded by my teacher for having a group meeting the next day (although my mentor doesn't usually scold me, she's very supportive of me in my job search, and specifically told me to feel free to take time off from work with her if I needed to go out of town for an interview), and I had to complete my brushing up goal from the day before before I could start messing around with my group work-! -Can't help it, who made me not start preparing for it in the previous months hahaha. Then there's the 8 strands, this one I'm sticking to every day1Section Kobayashi's Eight Shares. As long as you can stick to it, thunder and lightning, and don't rest on holidays, then rest assured that it will definitely pay off.
Sea cast, sea pen, sea surface. This one works well for non-big guys like me - for the big guys, pitch a few companies and positions that you want to go to the most, and then punch theSSPIt's done; but for the average person, no one knows whether their fall recruitment is full or nothing. So in the face of the unknown, the only thing you can do is to sea cast. I had a strategy at that time - because I brush up less, so many times some Internet companies do very poorly in the written test, and after the test, I know it's cool; then as long as this situation occurs, I will go back to the casting3a new company to make up for this current opportunity that is definitely cool. Of course, I ended up pitching120More than one company, and the real sea investment big brother compared to not worth mentioning, a hair of nine cows; but for their own, accumulated a lot of written tests, interviews (especially interviews) experience, and even had a few different units of interviews hand-tearing code questions consistent situation. It is this approach that can force yourself to accumulate more experience.
At this point, the job is done.
